Before doing that, please post a list of packages and their maintainers to the devel list. Preferably you would post two lists: one in the form: package owner1 owner2 owner2 And another in the form owner package1 package2 package3 This makes it easy for packagers to trivially see if they have any work to do without having to wrestle with what could potentially be a large number of bugzilla tickets which are more annoying than useful. The message with these lists should also include reasonably complete information about what they need to do. Not just a pile of links, though you should of course include links in case someone wants to read further.

That will go faster if you don't waste people's time filing a load bugs and instead give people at least a couple of weeks to see their name on a list and get things fixed up. A few extra minutes spent generating a useful and complete report can save a lot of time for busy packagers and potentially save some ill will as well. - J< _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
